Has any one had any OS 10.2.8 upgrade to 10.3 problems?

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if any of the other Mac editors have had any problems when they did the upgrade to 10.3. with there operating system especially with their editing software and graphics programs?. i had heard a few rumors that people were having problems although I'm not sure what they were and i've been hesitant to do the upgrade until i was sure that all would work well when i did it.

My upgrade to 10.3 went smooth... Update to .3.1 was problematic... had to do an A&I back to .3.0... have heard about significant issues with .3.2 when it comes to external FW drives with the wrong firmware.

Hey Scotty,

I had zero problems upgrading to Panther but I don't do the hard core editing like you do. I really like Panther. It has been absolutely rock solid since installation. Have you scouted the Apple Discussion boards for any indication of problems? That is where I would look.

What are the advantages of upgrading. I am still running 10.1.? and considered Jaguar and now Panther, but am not sure if I need to. Does it cost$$ for the OS? When I was looking at doing it, it was $60 or something to get Jag.
...FUN FOR ALL!

I think you will notice quite an improvement in system speed if you go from 10.1 to Panther. I think Panther is way more stable than Jaguar, which was very stable, and definitely a ton more stable than 10.1. I like Expose, the fast user switching..which you may have no need for...but mostly the speed and the stability. The updates to the Mail app are very good as well...threaded sorting is nice for mail lists and the junk mail filter is quite good.
